THIS DOESN'T WORK - DO NOT BUY

Should have read reviews before buying - leveling tool IS USELESS. Buy a better one - This one is now a great paperweight.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Mismanufactured by Motorcycle & Powersports

Very disappointed. Diameters were wrong. Luckily I'm a machinist and was able to fix it. Motor alignment is not possible if the tool diameter is 0.004 larger than the bearing diameter. waste of money and time

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Almost never

Not the best!: Tool kits

Like other reviews (that I had to read) the installation tool requires you to drill a hole for correct installation for different boats. In addition, the installation tool is too large for the bearing and must be milled.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Do not buy! for fluids and maintenance

The tool did not work! The alignment tool is a slightly larger diameter, it went through my new gimbal but got stuck and it was a huge project to free it without damaging it. The Gimble Bearing Alignment Tool requires a hole to be drilled to mount an adjusting washer that is not marked at all. Don't waste money, buy the same tool from your Mercruiser dealer and save yourself the headache.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Quality

Not the best. Go OEM

The uninstall part of this tool worked fine. The balance shaft is not very good. His own thorn didn't even fit. I had to remove some material from the alignment tool and sand the inside of the mandrel to fit. Also, I didn't realize you had to install a mandrel and drill a hole through the alignment tool. I ended up doing something different because I didn't want to accidentally put the mandrel in the wrong place. And finally it came without instructions. I learned all of this by studying the…

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Not sure

Extremely disappointing

I have bought so many things from Revain over the years - mostly great. I don't leave reviews because I value my privacy. I'm also not a very active internet user in social forms. I was so disappointed in this product that I just couldn't help but give a bad review. Don't even assemble. The threads just don't match. The alignment tool can be good on its own if it actually fits the Mercruiser gimbal. What a huge waste of time. I hope this review can prevent even one further sale of this product…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Everything is great
